Many people are used to associating a beautiful smile not only with a person's external attractiveness, but also with health. But there are products that can harm the beauty of a smile.
We are talking about food and drinks that damage tooth enamel.
Dentist Luiza Avtandilyan told us about what exactly these products are, reports aif.ru.
First of all, the doctor said that tea and coffee give the enamel a dark shade.
Avtandilyan also emphasized that concentrated juices, berries, fruits and some vegetables (grapes, currants, beets, pomegranate) also lead to darkening of the enamel.
Citrus fruits lead to erosion of tooth enamel and the development of its hypersensitivity.
Red wine also stains teeth. As the doctor noted, when drinking such a drink, teeth become more vulnerable to pathogenic microorganisms.
Sauces and spices also damage enamel, creating a grey or brown tint.
The dentist recommended rinsing your mouth and brushing your teeth after consuming these drinks and foods.
